Thanks to @lyngardner and @TheStage for shining a light on this work and our audiences - because the arts belong to us all. As Ellie says, “We have gone so far but there is so much further we could go, and we will. That’s the challenge.”

We've worked so hard this year, but had great results! It feels great to be supporting fringe theatre so extensively and at grass roots level where others fear to tread!!
26 Dec 2024
We've had an incredible year again. Most reviews ever, and greatest number of visitors to the website. We're going to do some full stats as soon as the year ends, but for now, here's something to celebrate our record breaking number of reviews for 2024.

NEW: English councils have cut culture spending by more than 50% since 2009-10, further jeopardising local access to the arts.
The Campaign for the Arts has launched an open call for information from the public, as councils consider next year's budgets.
